Spread Some PB&J Love

DURATION

From your kitchen (although you will also need to drop off your makings at NHIFP)

WHEN

All year long

WHOSE HELP IS REQUIRED

Mom, Dad or another grown-up's help to deliver the finished sandwiches

HOW IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE

For someone who might otherwise not have all the food they need, the gift of a simple sandwich can provide both necessary nutrients and also a dose of comfort. By taking the time to make a few peanut butter & jelly's, you'll be sharing one of your favorite foods with neighbors who will greatly benefit from your kindness.

DESCRIPTION

Throw together a few of the childhood staple - peanut butter & jelly - and spread some love to neighbors who are hungry. This quick and easy task can mean nutrition for someone who might otherwise go without lunch today. Simple ingredients and a simple gesture of kindness can mean a whole lot more to the person who gets to enjoy your efforts on the other side.

ITEMS NEEDED

1. A loaf of white bread

2. Jar of peanut butter

3. Jar of jam or jelly

SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS

Please note that sandwiches can only be dropped off on Mondays and Fridays between 7:30 and 8:00 a.m.
